today on my way to do the Toys for Tots run somebody pulled in front of me and i had to lay the bike down.

at any rate, all is fine except that the dog will only shift in first and neutral. i cannot shift in second and.... any suggestion to what it may be?

thanks,

Claudio

Number one glad your ok? Look for any damage done to and around the shift linkage, foot rest, toe peg? What side did the bike go down on?

If the toe peg hit the ground. It may have jammed the shift linkage into the the shift paw? If it is still connected at the trans, disconnect it and try shifting it by hand. Something bent or jammed these bikes seem to be very moody at times if everything is not just right, joints etc ? any pics possible?
